# getInstanceOrganizationMembershipList()

Gets the list of Organization memberships for the instance. By default, the list is returned in descending order by creation date (newest first).

Returns a [`PaginatedResourceResponse`](https://clerk.com/docs/reference/backend/types/paginated-resource-response.md) object with a `data` property containing an array of [`OrganizationMembership`](https://clerk.com/docs/reference/backend/types/backend-organization-membership.md) objects and a `totalCount` property containing the total number of Organization memberships for the instance.

> To get the list of Organization memberships **for a specific Organization**, use [`getOrganizationMembershipList()`](https://clerk.com/docs/reference/backend/organization/get-organization-membership-list.md).

```typescript
function getInstanceOrganizationMembershipList(params: GetInstanceOrganizationMembershipListParams): Promise<PaginatedResourceResponse<OrganizationMembership[]>>
```

## Usage

> Using `clerkClient` varies based on the SDK you're using. Refer to the [overview](https://clerk.com/docs/reference/backend/overview.md) for usage details, including guidance on [how to access the `userId` and other properties](https://clerk.com/docs/reference/backend/overview.md#example-get-the-user-id-and-other-properties).

```tsx
const response = await clerkClient.organizations.getInstanceOrganizationMembershipList()
```

## Backend API (BAPI) endpoint

This method in the SDK is a wrapper around the BAPI endpoint `GET/organization_memberships`. See the [BAPI reference](https://clerk.com/docs/reference/backend-api/tag/organization-memberships/GET/organization_memberships){{ target: '_blank' }} for more information.
